It's the Tourists... (Mice Age)
Insightful article on what DisneyWorld vacationers look for, and how Disney meets - or fails to meet - those needs. Includes a few brilliant points on why FastPass doesn't work.

Zune = anus (Fake Steve Jobs)
This graphic so perfect, you'd think it was planned this way.

J.K. Rowling: Good Author, Bad Game Designer (Soren Johnson)
Weblog entry/comments discussing what every gamer has thought since Harry Potter Book One: if the damn Snitch is worth 150 points and ends the game (and always seems to appear somewhere in the stratosphere), then what the hell is the rest of the team there for?

Mark Evanier's best weblog day ever
In one day, Evanier discusses the Sen. Craig case, laments the impending cancellation of Disney Adventures, and offers some warm fuzzies on Jack Kirby. I love this guy. I really hope that I end up finding a time machine so I can go back in time and become him. (And two days later, he mentions the probable sale of the KTLA soundstage studios! I was there about seven years ago and had NO IDEA I was standing in the very meatspace where Bugs Goddamn Bunny was created. Jesus.)

No NWR Metroid Review Today or Soon (Nintendo World Report)
This is why I like these guys (although I wish they'd ditch the obnoxious embedded irrelevant green link advertisements). Nintendo screwed them out of a review copy of Metroid Prime 3, so they did not get the usual lead time to get a review written. But rather than rush through the game just to get anything on their site for the drop window, they're sitting back and playing the game for two weeks or whatever, so they can be thorough about it.

This has got to be killing Metts. Can't wait to hear this covered on the podcast.
